Owners John and Denise Tracy opened Jasper Hill in Holliston and spent the last five years, fine tuning the concept.

Their search brought them to an ideal location for both, at the historic Rocklawn building in Millis. The 132-yearold house was originally designed for Helen Van Kleeck, daughter of Lansing Millis, for whom the town was named. The home became a showplace of the community in its day. Continuing that tradition today, Jasper Hill fireplaces and rich mahogany paneling in addition to the cocktail lounge and delightful enclosed porch. The menu changes frequently to allow the chef to keep things interesting and take advantage of fresh seasonal ingredients, sambuca sauce. A top selling salad is the grilled salmon and spinach, with blueberries, walnuts, avocado and champagne vinaigrette. A sampling of favorite entrees include Red wine braised short ribs, Papardelle Bolognese, a veal, pork and tenderloin ragu over pasta and Cajun shrimp tacos with arugula, red onion, roasted tomatoes and sriracha aioli.
